Investigations revealed that the couple had lived together for a long time and the man committed the crime when he found out the woman was seeing another man.
The man was arrested after a neighbor called the police. However, even after his arrest, he allegedly continued to text the woman in a threatening manner.
Police have sought an arrest warrant for the suspect. “We are investigating the details since it seems like he has continued to threaten her,” said police.
